The wedding was beautiful and everyone was in attendance. Kiyota smiled at her friends standing together. It was a double wedding. Inuyasha and Kagome had also decided to be wed as well. This was the first of the two weddings for them that would come. Both Sango and Kagome looked amazing in their wedding kimonos. Kaede was just finished the ceremony.
A great feast was held at the Western Lands Castle for the wedding of the two pairs. Sesshoumaru had insisted that it was time he acted like a brother and treated Inuyasha right.
"You're mate has rubbed off on you." Inuyasha had teased.
"Indeed the insolent wench has." Sesshoumaru had said back getting pelted across the back of the head by his said mate. Inuyasha had laughed only to be sat by his wife. Kiyota and Kagome both sighed and walked away. Kiyota however had a hand over her rounding belly glaring at the taiyoukai. Sesshoumaru shook his head with a stupid grin on his face. He was the cause for her current state.
"Its a son." He told Inuyasha proudly.
"Its a daughter." Came his wife's response from the hallway. Sesshoumaru laughed knowing it was indeed a son she carried.
"You realize that the child will be hanyou whether it is male or female right?" Inuyasha asked.
"I care not brother. It will be my son." He said with a smile.
"Man you have changed." Inuyasha said shaking his head.
Together the brothers walked through the castle, Sesshoumaru showing Inuyasha things he had never seen before. Both stopped before a painting of their great and terrible father.
"It seems we both developed a taste from Father." Sesshoumaru said.
"That we did. Best choice of my life though." Inuyasha said smiling.
"As Kiyota was mine." Sesshoumaru said with the same smile.
Kagome and Kiyota peeked around the corner at their husbands with knowing smiles. They turned to each other knowing full well both were aware of their presence.
"Aww look they're bonding." Kiyota said.
"Its so adorable." Kagome said.
"Eeek!" Both yelped when their husbands turned on them. Kiyota attempted to get away as fast as she could but three months pregnant, half way through her term running was hard. Kagome got farther before Inuyasha caught her.
"It is not kind to leave your pregnant friend behind." Inuyasha teased. "One day you will share the same fate." He said low. Kagome shivered. Rin came down the hall in search of her mother whom she had become very protective of in her pregnancy. Rin wanted nothing more then to have a brother or sister and she would be granted more than just one. Rin's escort also watched for his young love's welfare.
Love was blooming all over the caste. Even Jaken was now mated to another of his own race and very happy. Kagura and Kanna were now in the employment of the Western Lord and treated fairly. Kagura was granted the ability to come and go as she pleased but was also given a home to return to when she tired of her wanderings.
Sesshoumaru stood behind his mate his hands resting on her rounded belly looking on at his daughter and her escort. He nuzzled her neck.
"I do believe I will be getting asked when she is of age for her hand." Sesshoumaru said to his mate.
"Yes you will be. Rin does care a great deal for him. It will be good for both of them to see each other as much as possible until then." Kiyota said.
"You will have no time for such things. You will be caring for far too many pups." Sesshoumaru said.
"As will you." She growled.
"Only my sons." Sesshoumaru said.
"And when this child comes to be a daughter you will be sadly disappointed and beating off the men with your swords." She said laughing at the thought of Sesshoumaru using Dragon Strike on every suitor.
Kagome's shriek brought the older pair of lovers from their own world. Kiyota raised her eyebrow at her friend who just looked at them red faced as all could be. Inuyasha was smirking behind her. He had obviously done something.
"Hentais." Kiyota and Sesshoumaru said before walking away giving the newlyweds time alone.
"They will be making quite the racket tonight." Sesshoumaru sighed.
"And we wont?" Kiyota asked. Sesshoumaru groaned. He had to remember the next time he thought it wise to impregnate his mate how insufferably lecherous she became. She made the monk seem tame. Her soft laughter broke his train of thought. "Its your fault." She reminded.
It is to, you baka. Not that we complain. We like her this way. She never turns us away. His Inu said.
"I was I to know how lecherous of a woman she was?" He asked.
"Sesshoumaru stop talking to yourself." She said shaking her head.
"WOMAN I DO NOT TALK TO MYSELF!" He yelled while his Inu laughed at him yet again.
"My name is not woman. Its Ki Yo Ta." She said mocking Kagome laughing at her husband as he growled following her.
